dificult lvl
« on: March 01, 2012, 12:28:59 PM »
besides the ai that in games usualy is easy, medium or hard. we should have if we chouse when we press the new game butoon a permadeath option, the game will be saved when you exist the game and after a battle, the old saved file will be replaced by the new one, so you could not play a battel again if you don't like the end of it

this will be optional so if you want to save before a battle you should not pic permadeath when you start a new game

bad engllish i know:)!

I agree the game could benefit from a hardcore mode (permadeath). It would add more replayability and there's absolutely no reason not to have it anyway, being entirely optional.

I myself would probably have tons of softcore saves and 1 hardcore where I have fun losing it all and struggling to get it back.

Note that by permadeath I don't mean the save gets deleted, I mean that if I lose my fleet and am left with a Dram tanker, it saves automatically so I have to continue like that. I assume that's what you meant also. There could be both forced-save and death-deletes-save, anyway. Why not?  :)

A hardcore mode would be nifty. Though I think it is important to be careful about not making the player feel like they were cheated in a certain situation. For instance, the game glitched... And I can't think of anymore because my brain isn't working. But you get the idea.
